Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life Chapter 1415 - 1404: The Little Uncle of the Prestigious Family

"Xingyan, it’s your birthday again. We’ll definitely be there." Classmates in the class cheerfully said while holding Ye Xingyan’s invitation.

However, Ye Xingyan couldn’t quite muster a smile. On the birthday, everyone would understand that she’s not the Ye family’s biological child, while Ye Yao’s attire would be more luxurious. By then, who holds a higher position in the Ye family would be clear.

"Shi, do you have time to come then?" After thinking for a while, she handed the invitation to Shi Junmian, with classmates around watching for his reaction.

Shi Junmian frowned slightly but eventually accepted it. The girls squealed excitedly, then began discussing what to wear that day, all vying to leave a good impression on Shi Junmian.

On the birthday, Shen Huiran pondered before asking, "Not inviting Ye Yao’s adoptive parents? After all..."

"After all what?" Ye Qiu looked up, "It’s already good enough we haven’t informed them. Do you want them to come and embarrass Ye Yao? Or do you wish to embarrass Ye Xingyan? Then it’s fine by me, but I can’t control any rumors that arise afterward."

Ye Xingyan panicked, unable to imagine everyone knowing she’s not a Ye family member, and even less able to imagine everyone knowing her biological parents are those kinds of people, not only swapping children but having been imprisoned, even severing ties with a million-dollar agreement...

Such people, how can they be worthy parents?

She grabbed Shen Huiran’s hand, pursing her lips to show her unwillingness.

Shen Huiran realized she had misspoken. Her intention was merely to remind Ye Yao not to get complacent with Ye Qiu’s protection, yet forgot that if Qian Lan Ya and her husband came, it would be Xingyan who’d be more embarrassed.

"Ye Bai." Ye Tang suddenly spoke.

Ye Bai was shocked, "Dad, what are your instructions?"

"I brought you back to the Ye family. Your actions represent the Ye family’s actions. Whether handling matters or treating people, make sure everything is well thought out, and don’t say anything inappropriate." Ye Tang sternly instructed, "Since both of you are determined to protect Ye Xingyan, and you’ve reached an agreement with that family, don’t interact with them in the future."

"Yes, Dad, I understand. I’ll be mindful from now on." Ye Bai said, looking distressed.

Shen Huiran’s face changed, pale then flushed. Her father-in-law’s words were ostensibly reprimanding her husband, but weren’t they also directed at herself? Yet, this favoritism seemed glaringly obvious. Do Ye Qiu’s usual actions align with the Ye family behavior norms? How much gossip did the Ye family endure during his four years of paralysis? How come he wasn’t directly stripped of his inheritance?

Shen Huiran knew she couldn’t dwell on these grievances, for her father-in-law only loved her brother-in-law’s mother deeply, while her husband Ye Bai’s biological mother was merely a toy to him back then.

Nonetheless, toys or not, the children born are still his blood, yet no mercy is shown?

At this moment, a mad thought crossed Shen Huiran’s mind. If her father-in-law suddenly passed away, who would inherit the most? Who could stabilize the company the best?

Her husband was clearly the most useful person to the family, so why should their family suffer such grievances?

Amid Shen Huiran’s indignation and wild imagination, the arrival of the two-hour countdown to the evening banquet quickly approached. The event was set in their family’s hotel, though they needed to go early for styling.

Ye Xingyan had tried on her dress earlier, custom-made as a white princess dress with a large hem, layered with white gauze, incredibly delicate and ethereal, perfectly suiting her temperament. Her hairstyle today was also very princess-like, though merely adorned with a small pearl crown, it enhanced her nobility.

Knowing that Ye Yao would wear the ice species violet jade, wearing diamonds or gemstones herself would make her seem inferior to Ye Yao. Thus, choosing natural pearls was more fitting. They were elegant and not overly expensive, reflecting her demeanor, and within her budget.

"My daughter is truly beautiful!" Shen Huiran sincerely exclaimed. In her eyes, Ye Xingyan was always her pride. To her, marrying Ye Bai and raising Ye Xingyan successfully were her life’s greatest achievements.

"I wonder how Sister Yao’s styling is? Mom, do you know?" Although confident in herself, Ye Xingyan was curious how Ye Qiu adorned Ye Yao. Ye Yao, though prettier than when she first arrived, was ultimately not as good as herself.

Being biological doesn’t matter; nowhere is she better than herself. Everyone’s attention will undoubtedly be on her.

Shen Huiran frowned at this: "I don’t know, haven’t asked."

"Mom, can you go see it for me?"

"No, she’s with your little uncle now, going in might upset your little uncle." Shen Huiran hesitated for a moment, "We’ll see her soon anyway."

The banquet site was bustling with talk. Besides friends of the two children, many of the Ye family’s business partners were present, all chattering about why such an elaborate celebration for a child’s birthday.

"I’ve met that Ye Xingyan kid; she’s exceptionally beautiful and smart, no wonder the Ye family values her."

"Ye Bai has been back with the Ye family for years now, yet Ye Qiu shows no sign of returning. Seems like Ye Bai will be prioritized from here on!"

"Can’t say for sure, you know Ye Tang only dotes on his wife. How could his wife allow an illegitimate child from outside to take over the business?"

"But today’s birthday banquet is hosted for Ye Bai’s daughter. To a man, aren’t sons and the business more important?"

"I heard Ye Bai was stripped of many duties recently?"

"What we reckon isn’t certain, let’s see what Ye Tang will say later."

"True."

The guests chatted incessantly, while Ye Xingyan’s classmates bumped into those from Experimental Middle School. The two schools were always rivals, keeping a distance but recognizing each other from competitions. Both sides were curious about each other’s presence.

Especially Ye Xingyan’s classmates, their faces weren’t looking good, since Experimental Middle School consistently outperformed them academically. Ye Xingyan had publicly declared wanting to surpass Experimental Middle School, so why were they invited?

Individually feeling betrayed, their hearts sank.

However, they quickly realized Experimental Middle School was not invited by Ye Xingyan, though it didn’t lift their spirits.

One was the Ye family’s legitimate eldest lady, the other mistakenly switched, and the latter had better grades; whichever way you look, Xingyao Middle School seemed inferior.
